The Good Directions White Vinyl Kent Cupolas Good Directions, the #1 source of high-quality, exquisitely designed, functional accessories for home and garden, introduces the Kent Cupolas to our customers. These traditional yet ornamental vinyl cupolas feature a Hip Style Wooden Roof, a Louvered Mid-Section, and a Smooth Vinyl Base. Although they can be used for ventilation, these distinctive cupolas are generally used for decorative purposes and add a charming architectural accent atop your roof. The Hip Style roof is designed to accent homes with traditional roof lines and general straight line architecture.The Good Directions White Vinyl Kent Cupolas: About the Roof The Wooden Roof of the Kent Cupola is both visually appealing and structurally sound. The roof is made from hand selected Northern White Pine, so the roof will age beautifully over time. Supporting the roof, is a wooden base treated to withstand moisture, rotting, and insect damage. The Good Directions White Vinyl Kent Cupolas: About the Mid-Section The mid-section of the Kent vinyl cupolas features a Louvered ventilation system. The horizontal and vertical slats are angled to admit light and air, but keep out rain and direct sunshine. The mid-section is constructed of high quality PVC, which is more durable and rugged than natural wood, and virtually maintenance-free. As a bonus, the vinyl, if treated with vinyl primer first, can be painted to match the exterior of your home. The Good Directions White Vinyl Kent Cupolas: About the Base The Smooth Vinyl Base of the Kent Cupola offers simplicity and functionality. The base is designed to accept a 10/12 pitch (10 rise per foot). However if the roof pitch is steeper than a 10/12 pitch, you will need to order the available extension base. For example, up to a 12/12 roof pitch, 1 Extension Base is needed, while up to a 14/12 roof pitch, 2 Extension Bases are required. The product includes all instructions and hardware needed for easy installation. The Good Directions White Vinyl Kent Cupolas: Attaching a Weathervane or Finial The Kent Cupola is weathervane or finial ready. The top of the cupola has a hole, which can accept up to a 1 weathervane or finial post. Inside the roof, a bracket attaches the post to the cupola for additional fortification. The Good Directions White Vinyl Kent Cupolas: What Size is Right for Your Home When selecting the right size Cupola for your home or business, there is a good rule of thumb to follow; use 1.5 inches of cupola for every foot of unbroken roofline. For example, if a roof section measures 24 feet, the minimum cupola size should be approximately 36 inches square. For a more dramatic effect, or if a cupola larger than 60 inches square is needed, consider using two cupolas on the roofline. Should you choose to use two cupolas, the rule of thumb changes to one (1) inch of cupola for every foot of unbroken roofline. For example, if a roof section measures 24 feet, the minimum size of each cupola should be approximately 24 inches square. These beautiful Kent Cupolas come in the following sizes:
